Press DVD,
On the next screen, Press the upper left corner, lower left corner, upper left corner, lower left,lower right corner.
A menu comes up.
Press OVERRIDE until you hear a beep. Then Back.
I have to do this while stopped. It has to be done each time the vehicle is started.
I have been told to be careful, the other menu choices can reek havoc. So only use the Override.
Good Luck
After pressing the DVD button, the screen does not respond to the pressing of the upper and lower corners.
Any more ideas?

If it still doesn't work, the drive itself needs to be looked at for cleaning or replacement.
Good Luck!

You could get a used replacement drive (cheapest option) or a new one from the dealer (very pricey) or hunt one down on the internet, new or used.
Delete all stored way points and stored locations. Reset traffic routing to all defaults. Delete previous destinations. Reinitialize home location.
It should work.
I had received the exact message on our LS430 about two week ago. I was searching how to correct it by finding the location of the DVD. I could't. find it. Than I thought I may disconnect the power by removing the positive connection from the battery while the kee is in the ignation. After returnig the power I checked the nevigation system that now works just like before.
If you still have that problem, do what I did. I hope it will work for you too.

You will have to remove two 10 mm bolts to tilt the unit up and eject the old disc to replace it with the new one. Do this while the car is off of course, and don't drop the bolts in any crevices around the unit.
Will this DVD work?

which would indicate that you need the disc for a Generation 3 system Part number 00230-GEN23-CY06 .
The disc drive is under a panel under the passnger side of the trunk floor. Once the panel is removed, you will have to remove two 10 mm bolts to tilt the drive up, and then eject the disc manually. Put the new disc in and wait for the system to boot up before buttoning everything back down again.
Hint: Don't drop the bolts when removing them, as retreival may a be quite a pain.
Thanks
My question is how to install it (of course, it doesn't come with instructions), currently it has the original 2003 navigation CD loaded. I don't know if I need to use the override button first, if I have to dive into the trunk in order to swap out the CD's... or both! I assume that once the system reads the new CD it must stay in the car in order for it to work.
Can someone please help me as I really don't want to pay 1/2 hour of labor which is what all the dealers want to charge. I thought it was pretty steep buying the upgrade version ($180+tx) just to be hit with a $62+ labor fee on top of the CD. I found it strange how every dealer wants to make more than the other as each price is significantly different!
Thanks for any help you may be able to send my way.

BEFORE I bought those manuals etc. the FIRST time I tried to program the location it would say "Proceed ahead..." and that's ALL I'd get (just the initial first few words). Of course, I'd be lost between my house in Carlsbad and the recording studio in Los Angeles. That was over a hundred miles to get lost and stressed on all those freeways! WHEN I arrived it said.."You have arrived!" Well thanks a lot (hahaha) LOL. What's up with that? It was beyond me why it would only give the beginning information and the ending information: "Proceed ahead and you have arrived..." but nothing in between! :mad:
I tried putting the DVD, that came with the manuals I bought, in the CD slot and it played the contents and operational instructions, I wasn't sure if it had downloaded anything as far as giving me anything more than I already had.
And what's the point of having an expensive Navigation unit with an 6 year old outdated DVD that doesn't work?!! So I decided I'd ask my husband to buy me a new 2010 Navigation DVD after they were released in November.
My husband finally broke down and gave me the money as my Xmas present early, yes miracles occasionally happen... smiles.
Now I'm ready to head over to buy my DVD, I was told they would make me the same deal as the one I recently bought for my mother. Unless you have deep pockets I think you should try to negotiate even if it's for accessories, the worse thing they could say is no (then try calling back and getting another person to give you a quote), it also helps if you call different dealers as "everything" is priced differently depending on how much they want to gouge you, and I'm not talking about a few dollars difference. In my case the supervisor, who was very nice, assisted me. I was also buying car mats for my husbands hand me down (from me) 98 ES300 and my car so maybe that helped.
Since I know there are a lot of you sharp, savvy people here I'm asking if someone would kindly tell me where the DVD installation location is in a 2004 LS430 as well as the installation steps. This way I'll be all set when I get my 2010 DVD to install it.
Thank you for your help in advance, hope you all have a fabulous day.
Your problem solved yet.If not,post it then I will give you some info later.
I need to know where to install (and the steps) the navigation dvd for my 2004 LS430.
